DESCRIPTION
If
you’re looking for a true 19th Century
log cabin with modern conveniences on a private
Adirondack lake, Camp Oxbow has it all –- plus a
sandy waterfront. Tucked away on a bay in the
southwest corner of Rainbow Lake, Camp Oxbow offers
scenic views, a broad screened porch, and a swimming
raft out front. You’ll enjoy hand-hewn timbers and a
cobblestone fireplace in the great room, as well as a
handy kitchen with handcrafted maple cabinets by an
Adirondack craftsman. Camp Oxbow offers your choice of
relaxation amid the pines, hiking up Buck Hill or to
Jones Pond, and canoeing along Forever Wild waterways.
Sightseeing favorites are within a short drive: the
Paul Smiths Visitors Center, White Pine Camp, or
Tupper Lake’s new Wild Center, to name a few.
Camp
Oxbow sleeps six in three bedrooms: one with double
bed, one with queen and single, one with two singles.
Enjoy the great room (25' x 21') or screened porch,
the fully equipped kitchen off the great room, 1 1/2
baths, and wall heater. Enjoy the waterfront with
firepit and outdoor furniture, under giant pines and
birch. It's 105' of waterfront to enjoy the out of
doors. Swimming is off the floating raft and canoeing
off the dock. Enjoy paddling or fishing along up to 25
miles of quiet shores of preserved state land up the
Rainbow River to Lake Kushaqua. Rainbow is a private
lake with no public access, stocked yearly for
fishing, and the scenery is classic Adirondacks. Or
take the short carry to Jones Pond and connect to the
St. Regis Canoe area and the Saranac Lake Chain, which
offer more miles of scenic paddling.
